Abstract: Hazard recognition is vital to achieving effective safety management. Unmanaged or unrecognized hazards on construction sites can lead to unexpected accidents. Recent research has identified cognitive failures among workers ...

Abstract: Proper hazard recognition and communication are fundamental to injury prevention in construction. When construction hazards remain unrecognized, the likelihood of injuries in the workplace increases. Therefore, construction ...

Abstract: The adoption and acceptance of new cutting-edge technologies such as wearable sensing devices (WSDs) have been investigated for personal use in a few industries, but concerns remain about worker postadoption behavior, ...

Abstract: The presented research proposes and experimentally validates a novel energy-based training module aimed at rapidly improving hazard-recognition skills in civil, environmental, and architectural engineering (CEAE) students. ...

Abstract: Nearly every safety management activity is designed around the fundamental and implicit assumption that the workforce is capable of identifying hazards before exposure. Unfortunately, research shows preliminary evidence ...

Abstract: The construction industry is experiencing a number of challenges. For example, construction workplaces report poor safety performance, widespread inefficiencies, and stagnant productivity rates. These challenges often ...
